"I've got a meditation app on my phone, it's called 'Mindfulness'. I do 10 minutes a day to just clear my head and narrow my focus.

"It helps with your breathing. I get a bit of anxiety sometimes about the game and meditating calms me down and keeps my head clear."

Former Warriors head coach Andrew McFadden introduced the practice to Lisone, in an effort to keep a lid on his racing thoughts and emotions during games.

If anything, Lisone has been guilty of going too hard too early, and has found himself struggling to maintain his best form after coming on to the field looking to rip and tear.

"Cappy and I have been talking about how I can manage my energy," he said.

"Sometimes last year, I used to burn myself out 12 minutes into my stint. Now I'm doing two 20-minute stints. If I'm lucky, 45 or 46 minutes all up," he said. "So it's just about managing your energy and when you're tired, slowing your breathing down and thinking about your next job before moving again. It keeps me focused and takes your mind away from how tired you are."
